What to do when a patch set gets no reply for 3 weeks ?

Hi,
i sent my first patch set three weeks ago. See:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-scsi/20200908120207.5014-1-scdbackup@gmx.net/T/#u
It was made with
git format-patch
and sent by
git send-email
to the addresses which were proposed here. In linux-scsi it showed up
after a day.
Then i followed the advise in Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst
"Wait for a minimum of
one week before resubmitting or pinging reviewers - possibly longer"
Still no reply yet. Neither to my mail address nor visible in the thread
display of lore.kernel.org.
Could some merciful person have a look at my patch set and point me to
obvious reasons why it does not get considered ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
If no obvious shortcomming disqualifies my patches, what to do next ?
- Ping everybody ?
- Repost ?
- Post one of the patch sets which i made during my time of patience ?
I have
- 3 bug fixes for cdrom+sr
- 1 augmentation of cdrom+sr for multi-session DVD and BD media
- 1 wish for a new ioctl CDROM_SIMUL_CHANGE in cdrom+sr
- 2 bug fixes for isofs
Have a nice day :)
Thomas
